Collusion and cheating

  • Collusion and cheating are serious offences and are likely to result in an unprofessionalism mark on your performance.
  • As a lecturer, I believe in your ability to conduct yourself professionally and with integrity
  • Collusion and cheating measures have been coded into the exam script, as decreed by the university.
  • Given my belief in your abilities and integrity, I fully expect this measure to score zero.
  • Remember that directly quoting from any material is still plagiarism and classed as cheating by the QUB, so answer in your own voice.
